"Okay, so here are the lyrics for the song," I said after writing them down.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYPoWdrlwJ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnPagmHBWp
Everyone's attention automatically turned to me. They all fell silent. I read out the lyrics first then sang them out.
"So, what do you think?" I asked, addressing the question towards BAP.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnR3bCPu5Y
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Gp2Ji9CNh
"Just admit it," said Zoey, "the song is awesome."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeftXLzOnJ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oZyBYbNRR
"Zoey." Christine gave her a look that told her to keep quiet. "Let the others take it in first."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK88AEAlFMP
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdKjGfHWl1
"Zoey's right," said Daehyun. "The lyrics are great."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FEtUIbXcd
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEd6Z5Sb4k
"I now get what Daniel said," said Zelo, "the song is meant to be sad, but it's fun to sing. You can hear it with the way Sam sang it out."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhfOZjxZn7
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8y6ecRzNW2
"You should listen to the tune," said Mike. "You'll love it."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cB4UQRmUe
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡva8vm5ojEX
"I bet that's why you went searching for the guitar," said Jongup as he looked at me.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYGe7SSHFL
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iWFillWqr
"Play the guitar, Sam," Himchan insisted. "We're all dying to hear it. I bet Yong-guk can't wait any longer."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJukfucgCY
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuczDiYBQB
"Huh?" Yong-guk looked at Himchan beside him, looking confused. "No, I'm not."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpPYcewQi2
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3CkaVLBnb
"Of course you are," said Yong-nam as he gave his brother a raised eyebrow. "Don't forget, I'm your twin."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZDeJIxGot
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOw74jUjCMd
"Okay," I said as I took the guitar that had been laying on the table the whole time. "Let me play it, then."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDS7B0p4da6
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rAxb697gY
I positioned the guitar properly before me with my crossed legs supporting it. Before I started to strum the strings, I took in a deep breath. I played out the tune first. Afterwards, I started to sing out the chorus. It wasn't long so it ended sooner than expected.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEVoOUsr93
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBjd6tzGa1
"Wow," said Young-jae, looking at me like he's just seen something's dazzled him. "The song's going to sound awesome."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfCHGRsnHh
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGdFcryQWr
"Thanks," I said. "Oh, before I forget," I reached out for the pencil on the table and started to write something down. "We also worked on the first verse, but we couldn't finish it up yesterday. We were having a little trouble with the words so we want to see what you guys think."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy8p6MkI6C
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hLoa8EUzH
"Alright," said Yong-guk, looking to see what I was writing on the paper. "Whatever it is, I bet we can handle it."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZAGuBuRm0
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQIhJBJoTn
"Can't wait to see you try," said Christine. "But then again, if it's you two l'm not worried."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs7HF5lBsu
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBoaHiEcen
"There you go again, Christine," I said after writing down the lyrics. "Okay, here we are." I laid down the pencil aside on the table.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5fvpczwGM
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUD6oXhg14M
I felt Jongup lean closer so as to see what I had written. I leaned to the side a little, but his blond hair almost covered my face. I couldn't help but take a sniff. His hair smelt really nice. Well, this seems unusual. I tried to lean away further so as not to smell him.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcTTBsZztm
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawFWkRILqJ
"Come on, Jongup," Zelo complained. "You're distracting Sam. We all want to hear what she has written."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLi59b9ISs
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSmleh1rnK
"I don't think that I'm distracting her," said Jongup as he looked at Zelo. "Right, Sam?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoR8Ni95e6
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfug1elXmF6
It's when he turned his head to look at me that I yelped and leaned back further than before, almost falling to the floor. Instead, I ended up leaning on Yong-nam.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWW6NWMFj6i
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8k2Hdpqg4P
Jongup looked at me with a puzzled look on his face. It's either he didn't know what he was about to do or he knew and was just playing dumb.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxtrjplZzx
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSDnAboprO
"What's wrong, Sam?" he asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjuLetRnpU
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbF1HCZJ08
I suddenly blushed. He really didn't know that he had almost planted a kiss on me. Anyway, it's best not to tell him. I hope the others hadn't noticed.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnQyDVFG8w
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoD8gRS8tz
"Goodness, Jongup," said Mike, "you almost kissed my sister."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHSSW9BlLW
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFnJgKUOmB
And it just had to be Mike. Goodness, me!580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopERLp14MG
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEM9wTER4k
"Huh?" Jongup looked surprised. "I did?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFJSFntQbR
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHmQ1ggfor
"And you were this close," said Zoey indicating a tiny space with her index finger and thumb.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hptUHqlIZ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2e7FDxoDf
"Oh...," Jongup turned to look at me. I was still leaning onto Yong-nam's shoulder. "I'm so sorry, Sam. Maybe I shouldn't have leaned in too close."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuguyG41KD
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOR2KSMJ1he
"You see, I told you so," said Zelo.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMrmrIm0oj
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobOgIOdK2v
"No, I'm okay," I said as I sat upright. "Sorry for leaning on you like that, Yong-nam. I hope I'm not too heavy."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYqj77UxqJ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81IKXnhxro
Yong-nam cleared his throat. "Not at all," he answered. "You're actually pretty light."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpfktA0ff5
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPesc5GgoO
I nervously laughed, not sure whether he meant it or not.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCXLxCBWmR
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgWOJI1JPC
"Wow," said Zoey as she delightfully clapped her hands together. "First Sam avoids Jongup from kissing her and then she leans onto Yong-nam who prevents her from falling. So sweet."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8k7fG2EU54
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUa3Mdr2Ye
"You're such a fantasist, Zoey," said Daniel as he shook his head.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWZeauNr44
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlHceWSznI
"Don't mind her," I said. "Can we forget the kissing incident and focus on the song, please?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bxaYum0ad
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyBxSbZ7gm
"Sure," said Mike. "That's if we can reset Zoey's brain or else she won't stop talking about it."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHJqfN3Wic
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5BTV7SYkp
"Are you saying that I'm kookoo?" Zoey asked, looking at Mike.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8ojaeoCfM
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSGPsZWUDE
"You can argue later, you two," I said, giving them a look. "Let's try and focus."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPegxRCVga
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FTmqoSu19
I went back to looking at the paper in front of me and read out the lyrics for them. Just like we did with BAP's song, we started coming up with lyrics. But this time, it proved to be a lot difficult than we expected. Whatever we came up with didn't really fit with the song.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7i9RCrsXUe
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpWiClVmvs
"Is it just me or something's just off?" Young-jae asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKHl6IJkST
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOvIsshmeq
"I think I feel what you mean," said Zoey as she scratched her head.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKW59ZpKThj
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkI8X0ZgfJE
"Huh? What's Zoey saying?" Himchan asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2nI6iOLM3
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWA3OSM4ALH
"I told you we should've rewired her brain a little," said Mike as he turned to look at me. I shook my head. Zoey on the other hand, ignored him. That's so unlike her.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx71A5KXJjT
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZ82A2Yzy2
"I feel we aren't working like we did the first time," said Christine.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZpuXBzYHr
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh48dLHj5Sj
"Ya, that's what I meant," said Zoey.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BB9M3OnbD
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfIRNjbuF0
"We just aren't coming up with the right lyrics," said Yong-guk, "that's all."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTYgkdxhrw
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfmUPyNXqR
"Why is that?" Himchan asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡma8WPVPgpw
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AsocOnTQP
"Who knows," said Daniel. "What do you think, Sam?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmMDlHcxzA
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFhTkAIJri
I shrugged my shoulders as I also couldn't figure out why we found it so difficult. I scratched the back of my head and pouted my lip a little.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDDulDF29u
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJviLzqv8Cw
"You look like you're about to cry, Sam," said Jongup.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQTe2cxxhX
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pFpAkopWe
"Don't mind me," I said. "I'm frustrated that we're going nowhere."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDo9vuxU95
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNOxkFw2FY
"Maybe we're all just tired," said Zelo.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Gstp4m1zR
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKt3qzjPwm
"I felt we rested enough," said Daehyun.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaU2zjXg399
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUYaLnkYYS
"Or maybe we've been in the same place for too long," I suggested. "Sometimes the environment contributes greatly."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvv74iVVED
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXtwA2HWxA
"Maybe," said Yong-guk.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkX067ofny
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V90n8vYGB
"What do you think, Yong-nam?" Christine asked as she turned to look at him.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoMInp68ND
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7B4Mqj2Co
He raised his arms up to stretch. As soon as he put them down, he said, "I think we're all just tired. We exhausted ourselves working on BAP's piece and thought we would do the same with this one. If you ask me, we should just call it a day and continue tomorrow."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiT5MuerG83
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHWZK3mfwN
"Tomorrow?" Daniel looked shocked at the idea. "Won't that be a little too late for us?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aTCvIDW3Y
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZG7OgSvSnZ
"You're right," I said as I slapped my forehead. "We've to meet the songwriters and composers for the album. We won't have enough time."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvS7R7F5CH
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz11OeBHa08
"Not forgetting that we should at least have something to present to Yang Hyun-suk," said Zoey.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelhCX2UmIx
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzerL3UlQT
"I told Collins to buy me more time, but I doubt Yang Hyun-suk will even want to hear it. Goodness, just thinking about it feels overwhelming." I buried my face into my hands.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowAofYncCQ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0X7717UxP
"Now I wish we never had to make an album," said Zoey as she leaned back on the chair and sighed.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XZwe3dwlA
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaf5ChjbAiE
"Wow, you guys are working on an album?" Jongup asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0XxWLk3Xd
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhXb75XSMw
"Yep," I answered as I lifted my face up from my hands. "Our managers are ambitious."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MQSgEy4MZ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgXxfbttBY
"At least we don't have to worry about the other songs," said Zoey.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3esU9A3TgD
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvliEh0Pc8A
"But you heard what Collins said this morning, Zoey. This one has to be awesome. But the way we're so exhausted, I feel we aren't going anywhere."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvkp5EUMAg
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zcq48v5LX
"I think we should take a little break," said Yong-nam.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUgtZwmB7P
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCZMI2IAAz
I went back first onto the floor with my eyes closed. I really did feel exhausted. Why did fatigue have to settle in like this?580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpg4Y7BGXZ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBevi5A4oJ
"You're scaring me, Sam," I heard Yong-guk say.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNcA0oAF94
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmIrMFNETz
"Oh, don't mind her," said Zoey. "She started this and finding a way to finish it is frustrating."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGk2Ztxq7I
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5X8TpbkU6L
I smiled a little at what Zoey said. Starting something and not finishing it really is frustrating, especially if it involves something that you really love to do. And with time ticking by, Yang Hyun-suk and Collins will have no choice but to be disappointed tomorrow.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg0vBnFsdu
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeX4VXRA5i
"Wait..., does this mean we won't have the reward Lee was talking about?" I heard Daniel ask.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU32BxwgDRn
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgT8s2qTDpl
I opened my eyes as I remembered Daesung's invitation. I really wish I could tell them the truth, but I held my tongue. Even if we leave this place without much progress, Lee won't hold us back because it isn't much of a reward, but an invitation to go out for an outdoor movie. I sat up.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJHM3xoLvJ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgqMyWzHQ7
"Don't worry about that, Daniel," I said. "Lee will give us that reward."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVT4JpRG24
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsbCP4uJJ8
"For someone who seems tired, you sound pretty confident," said Himchan.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ695dbdPGxj
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Llxa5RKhm
"I just know." I smiled at him as I shrugged my shoulders.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKuHCHoD3D
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNkJMs1hgs
"Do you've any idea what it could be?" Daniel asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4zoKN04CI
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrNKuH3o30
I shook my head. It's best it turns out as a surprise.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoodKmuBWS4
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDMNrfZZdd
"So, what are we going to do now?" Zelo asked. "Just sit and do nothing?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA43cybYWmk
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNM6sL8VIK4
"We can do something fun to pass the time," Christine suggested.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC77qXpW8MH
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOUILaCCZi
"Not me," I went back to lying down on the floor.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDYq0QmgC2
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjw97VOXAS
No one said a word. I could feel a few eyes on me, while others, I'm guessing, gave each other looks.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphi95NBUTv
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGhftLFhuU
"Come on, Sam," said Zoey. "You're such a party pooper."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjjn5AMv9j
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLF3gP5g4A
"Haven't heard you call me that in a while," I said as I smiled at the ceiling.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsA4eeuUALB
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScb7h9r4Qd
"Get up, will you? This is no time to be lying down."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEulmbauJa
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHrYoZA4qA
"There's nothing wrong with lying down to rest, is there?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4ozHlmv40
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycz8PlQFZ3
"Goodness, me." Zoey sounded frustrated. She couldn't argue over that and she knew it.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Kbbc5lRli
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zbeQdrgnh
"Maybe we should call Lee to pick us up," Mike suggested.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVZ2f9fjqn
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhiu75s6xB
"Don't bother," I said as I closed my eyes. "With us not under her radar anymore she's probably doing something for herself right now."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnU3AkBKdU1
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuevnEcGnj
I heard Zelo and Daehyun chuckle while I heard Christine and Zoey mutter out in frustration.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7DpFrBj8L
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlofz8ZvTU
"Looks like you're stuck here with us until Lee comes to pick you up," I heard Yong-guk say.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1TjnoitZk
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeumbN4tXP2
"But we can't sit here doing nothing," said Daniel. "Like Christine said, we better find something to do."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6erfM25b57
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZeo6kLKGt
"You should be resting," I suggested, my eyes still closed.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMURQyTNc5
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbsGH9zOIH
"Well, we don't want to," said Zoey. I imagined her folding her arms and looking at me like she would at Mike when he got her angry.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17PazPlg31
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2idKRB5f2O
I smiled. "Suit yourself."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwc4ESASRt
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxFEigJ03m
"No one wants to do karaoke in the recording booth?" Jongup suggested.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQYol0mGkn
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMAxzGN0jN
"I think we've done enough singing for one day," said Daehyun.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1Z7wxVQiP
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBriNFDkB8k
"I agree," said Zoey.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVZOWpg2ts
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8tNhhr6Hj
"If there's clearly nothing to do, then I think we should be resting like Sam's doing right now," said Yong-guk.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1STp1U0Xq
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd1Zl4yR5n
"I like your thinking," I said with my eyes closed. I raised my hand to give him a thumbs up.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtiVUQX9c0
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2ZUkrySuh
"You songwriters all think the same," I heard Christine mutter.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEEkj70VGu
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnrXcNAfXE
"I might not agree with all this," Mike started to say, "but I'm going through with Sam's idea. I'm just going to lean back on the couch a little."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamNDlsqJV3
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpofqvPFxYC
"Huh? Not you too, Mike," said Zoey, sounding surprised.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBBE7gXetA
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0m7smJ3Xun
"Quit it, Zoey." I heard him move on the couch, obviously putting himself in a more comfortable position. "There's nothing to do. Why not relax for a bit?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyJzxHdyEJ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7o4oNwCfn
"I shouldn't be surprised coming from you."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6kfj49CTU
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO78PB61PJc
"Ya, ya, ya, Zoey. I'm the bad guy here. Doesn't matter now, does it?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtC5cvdUexW
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJ4dmQANXf
"Well, if there's nothing for you guys to do at the moment, then I'm going to work on something," said Yong-guk.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdipTVHtjnW
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrQPOt8KSw
"And what could that be?" Young-jae asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLip3lWv0nG
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZP24wC3r1
"Our song, of course."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr28oPsJhD0
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Y4emov54D
"You go ahead and do that," I said.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkezA1gAdM
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtpe8Q2uwH
There came an awkward pause and I opened one eye to look at him.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kjTZGK59e
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgLT7NNNdq
"You look surprised, Yong-guk," said Yong-nam. He took the words right out of my mouth.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavc4cJwhUL
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZHzJFY38H
"I thought that would get Sam up from the floor since she seems to really like helping out," said Yong-guk.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtDGQwGcO7
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31BFzuWIhf
"I'm drained," I said as I closed my one eye and placed my open palm under my head. "As exciting as it sounds, I'll pass."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE32u3QjiY
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYRFSTFdLm
"Okay, then," said Yong-guk. "And you, Mike?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqCZCPFquv
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bv7IjUteN
"I'll pass too," said Mike.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoT4NBheV1R
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliD3u5HIXd
"Okay. I'll be by the console. Any of you guys want to join me?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXo4mbSzFWi
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBh7b9NNdr
"Well...," Zelo sounded hesitant and I heard a scratching sound across the table. I imagined he was scratching his head, wondering whether to go or not. "Me too," he finally said. "I don't feel like working on the song right now."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrcFeVlPGK
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5uLJvXDqv
"I'm going to relax over here too," said Young-jae.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9hnuV48nV
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrjoT0Eovy
"What's up with everyone?" Yong-guk asked, sounding surprised.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyq206pAuF
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9QALIG8Tl
"Like Yong-nam said, we're tired," I said as I sat up. "The best thing to do right now is relax."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wSvOjIzxG
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblErRbqH6N
"Aren't you worried about not making progress on your song?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGfqXNHX5z

"I was about to ask the same question," said Zoey with a sulky look on her face. 580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FNKvKI4MA
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf59GP0HdXW
I shrugged. "At first I was, but right now, I need to relax a little before my brain explodes. Don't let me stop you from working on your song."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFBcCg2ILM
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1f2AcDrJbs
"Alright, then," said Yong-nam as he also slept on the floor. "Looks like I can also rest. Keeping your eyes on time can be tiring too."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2uge9tjlD
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNu4yEcDK8C
"You of all people shouldn't even be sleeping," said Yong-guk.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7IFWedeGY
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCrcFIsuvK
I laughed. As much as I wanted to hear these two brothers argue, it ended there. I went back to sleeping on the floor.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpH0LzHLfCh
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuftCOnIEE
"I'm going to join the relaxing spree too," said Jongup, as he pulled out his phone from his pocket and slept on the floor beside me.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlN49KF8Pq
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5h2zDzYjcy
"Looks like the majority wins," said Himchan as he chuckled.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3CNFAl0H7
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEXaQVGcxr
Zoey mourned in frustration. Even I could tell she's tired. She had no choice but to give in.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzP8a9SwIa
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULVczple1I
"Oh, man!" Daniel muttered out loud.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Bgc7gYrJW
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wOLvCWr7d
I lifted my head from the floor to see what Daniel's doing. He had his phone out too and tapping at it. He's probably playing a game.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMzHiA05zg
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVQRR2xGm0
"Sorry, guys," he said. He quickly looked up from his phone when he noticed people's eyes on him. "Playing a game over here."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWC13YsT4Ih
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Se2YGj3CS
I shook my head at him as I put my head back on the floor. I looked beside me and saw Jongup on Instagram looking at cute cat videos. I turned the other side to see Yong-nam with his arm over his face, covering his eyes. He did seem just as tired as all of us. He did help come up with some lyrics, so no argument there.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3u2fTOBcla
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxK6d4UYLm0
I heard Zoey sigh and that brought a smile across my face. "I give up," she said. "I haven't been on Twitter lately. Time to see what's going on in the world."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNqUCFz8i1
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TUftiuYTo
"I think I'll have a little shut-eye," said Christine.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiOyWWvhHL
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S8kCjYcT5
Everyone seemed to be busy doing their own things now. I counted Jongup, Daniel, Young-jae and Zoey on their phones. Daehyun, Himchan and Zelo were engaged in a conversation. Even when Mike was resting on the couch, he seemed to be contributing whenever he can. Christine, Yong-nam and I were really the ones resting as we closed our eyes.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9woYX1Tg1p
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnhAS2bZvE
I heard someone stand up and guessed it was Yong-guk. I could hear footsteps head towards the other side of the room where the recording booth and console were. He seemed serious with what he wanted to do. I continued to lay there on the floor, hoping that I don't fall asleep.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ172lE3RnsF
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDD8C5LraVb
I found myself slowly imagining about the outdoor movie we were going to watch. Will it be an oldies movie? I would love to watch such. It just sets you in the mood when it has to.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtU0Y6lILS
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVI7OfNfNOL
I heard Jongup chuckle to himself and I knew he's still on his cat videos. A thought crossed my mind. Here I am thinking of the outdoor movie when I should be thinking about the song. I don't feel like dwelling on it. Now is the time to relax, nothing more.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCp5d2XocI4
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9kDahEYM2
"Hey, Sam?" I heard Jongup call me. "Are you asleep?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUaiMoi14U
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nGj6WkLZA
"No," I answered. I drew my eyes open and looked at him. "What is it?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZL9Imyqgb
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIGyFgeGNi
"Watch this," he said as he scooted closer that our heads nearly touched. He held his phone up for the two of us to see. We watched a cute cat video where a little white and brown kitten was chasing a movable toy mouse on the floor. It was cute and yet funny at the same time as the kitten tried so many times to capture it. Jongup and I laughed.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjsZiCL2af
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fRwm2uBd6
"Oh, my," I said as I wiped away the tears in my eyes. "The little kitten really struggled. But you've to admit, it's so cute."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapnLafU72D
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVxnXtIin0
"I know," said Jongup. "You should see this previous one. It will knock your socks off."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSl6QtyWEkz
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YuvrwRdMn
I joined Jongup in watching more cat videos. We soon moved on to watch people participate in various dance challenges.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcKW4jmvZm
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26Q1pt4wqC
"We should've a dance challenge one day," I said to Jongup as we watched.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOHsY7aPMS
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhfkFV8Wub
"Huh?" he turned to look at me. "We should've a dance challenge?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHCHBFecln
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMZCyvCNU2
"Ya. I mean The Toxins vs BAP."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvXpsUY5uN
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8sMrR5MSV
"Oh..., like the one you had with Monsta X?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5f7s8iR5n
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5uPJCuyKu
"Yes, like that one. You watched it?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvV8vpNe8b
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rTpmO0ehW
"I think a lot of us did. People really liked it."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8O7ypseUx
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVhBS7NRE6
"Too bad we lost. But it was fun. We should've one one of these days. That's if we could even make the time for it."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO2KNyIH0e
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3yMF7GVNv
"Oh, you've an album to work on."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyItUX0ucL
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UBlXmWci7
I stared at the ceiling and sighed. "Just thinking about it drains me." I went back to looking at his phone.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnk8C40iVAF
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgEoysuWet
"Did I hear someone talk about having a dance challenge with BAP?" Zoey asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY1iHZh9tm
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNinwyYAOH3
I raised my head a little and saw Zoey still on her phone.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLo9T7TTD9x
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWX7XlIHQq
"Yes, I said that," I said as I dropped my head and stared at Jongup's phone.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBNz39fShf
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0zC3Oc8l1
"Why not do so now?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj65pr5eZKM
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOgK1KWk3M
"No!" Christine, Mike and I said out loud at the same time.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO41lcFQq3D
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNr7ZcT8j3b
"Eish, guys. It's why I asked. You don't have to eat me alive."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNLevJwRjC
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mBfImIMql
Himchan and the other BAP members around the table started to chuckle.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvd3VqnMLKU
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM73UvOE8JX
"You Toxins really are something," said Himchan. "You do know that the majority of you opposed, right?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMGSo8QlDd
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3zd4WgJcQ
"Except Daniel," said Zelo.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND0ObYqfIZ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZM0g5FuKo
"Oh, I refuse too," said Daniel, still on his phone.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfXGGK21eu
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8OF2lt5iI
Zoey tsked. "You guys are no fun."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysSkR1LJOd
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXE3uymcD7
"Use logic, Zoey," said Christine. "We're all tired and don't have the energy for a dance challenge."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX2ON6Q5nm
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOgnhL9Uem
"I know that. I thought maybe someone's in the mood for it."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7RrBp5uju
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbscDflTEy
"No one is in the mood for it," said Mike.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuXsX3IDhS
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡby3atkl3DW
"And what if the BAP members were?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8Sq5fSKYk
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNhQBZPnX5
I heard Daehyun nervously chuckle. "To be honest, Zoey," he said, "I'm definitely not in the mood."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDOjIOL1gV
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GzoUJCqjB
"Me too," said Young-jae.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFvWx2qWxC
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtChud6rpN
"Me three," said Zelo.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQX9RsFcgo
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNk8fSyQTS
"Guess I don't have to ask you, Himchan," said Zoey, sounding unimpressed.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtolTyGoyx4
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9zcvmprwY
Himchan, just like Daehyun, nervously chuckled too.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFa0pG2sxUw
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiw8L1j8Ft
"You can ask Yong-guk," Zelo suggested.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qTnAauAJl
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ527KU2bdpl
"Nah. He's already busy and I don't like to be a bother."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG7gnmcXWj
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeSlfM3Jgc
"Really?" Mike asked. Uh-oh. I smell an argument brewing. "You bother a lot of us everyday."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5guI1dv1wU
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgg3GKolRi
"What did you say!?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP7Fh03Pg3
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgON5TCiJQ
"Quiet down, Zoey," said Christine. "You're disturbing Yong-nam. He's probably asleep."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSQ7mRWoef
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffDhqBJdMZ
I turned to look at Yong-nam beside me and saw him move his arm above his eyes. He had one eye open. He turned his eye to look at me. I almost yelped. I felt embarrassed that he had caught me looking at him. The corner of his lips raised to a smile. He closed his eye and moved his arm back to cover his eyes. That was it.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkANndD6WMF
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla100p4SGY
"I bet he isn't," said Zoey. "Is he, Sam?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVl5qWUtoo
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09LwzDeHmM
"Huh?" I got a little caught off guard as I didn't answer Zoey's question.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10XlLpYQ7n
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCcQSV1uIj
"Is he awake?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6tCfUW9gv
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPSQCOBP47
"Not sure," I answered. "He would've said something if he was."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxcXKk3Sco
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8MneCiNYm
I looked at him and noticed a wide smile on his face. Okay...., didn't know what to make of it, so I quickly turned my attention back to Jongup's phone.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QETDe5Mla
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDG05dSFsx
"Anyway, where was I?" Zoey asked as she paused to think a bit. I noticed that no one's willing to remind her. It's best not to.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKufGpkQs2
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIZf9iUI9j
"Ah-ha!" she exclaimed. "It's what you said, Mike. How am I a bother to you?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQRGJWPRVc
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uYtl9Kacf
"You're being a bother right now. I'm trying to rest and you're disturbing me."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6vIQtiDFb
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y6BpHOVdA
Zoey hissed that I thought a snake had magically appeared in the room. If she was one, no doubt she would attack Mike first.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPteic9A49
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8bbLk5rlj
"Enough," said Christine. "No one wants to see or hear you two fight."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwZZVzGBkY
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV4KqjbDm6
"Mike started it," said Zoey.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv9V2u1Rmx
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKrjU2bRNV
"You amplified it," said Mike. "You always do."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGsUpy9JCf
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFQF5iHx3N
"For once I agree with Mike," I said. "Let it go, Zoey."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZsWEk3Ud7
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfbJV6jIWG
"You guys are unbelievable," said Zoey.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6XhW2Q02S
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BAgzPAsV2
"You're unbelievable," said Himchan as he chuckled. "You really are a drama queen. No offense."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Alhm8kF9p
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz0paWpj37
"None taken. These guys call me that all the time."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p4DiD1VC2
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsIc3kPijD
After a while, all of us settled back to what we were doing. I was still watching videos with Jongup when I suddenly sat up from the floor. If I continued lying there, I would probably have a backache.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSs6w1gcMa
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJrQsp6zyE
I stretched out my arms and stood up, stretching my whole body.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZEBKH2W04
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhUAylL5sx
"I've had enough of watching Instagram videos," I told Jongup.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdt4jO9XRTn
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDC7m5cDjbV
He gave me a smile and went back to looking at his phone. I turned to look at everyone and almost all of them were either quietly resting or on their phones.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHPjjOuk42
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlAj6uAv7u
I looked over at Yong-guk who was still seated at the console. I decided to go over and see how he's progressing with the song.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU35Qp0cxL9
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfV4PZXUOAQ
"Hey, there," I said to him when I got behind him. I bent over to look at him from the side of his face.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsy4BjzNgn
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmd1M0wzFTX
"Oh, Sam," he looked up at me, surprised. "I didn't hear you coming."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWruCjPN47w
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡou6HovcdVb
"I've cat feet," I said as I took the empty seat next to him.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwcRZti940
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGX7hfDAoF
"Cat feet?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6LEe2LBkH
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdRdgBo1Vg
"I'm told there are times when people don't hear me coming so they say I've cat feet. I sometimes scare them."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbB3uPkSA5L
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuOLswyotf
"Oh, I see."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGg2NQcVlR
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDkeuTFB4U
"It's true, Yong-guk," Zoey said behind us. "So don't upset her or else she might come to your room and murder you."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvenqoxDQYq
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrK0Qnw8fUE
"I'll keep that in mind," said Yong-guk as he turned to smile at her.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmDLFMGAPx
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRMKNkKPmc
"Don't listen to her," I said as I turned to look at the console in front of me. "So, what are you really working on? I thought we were done and dusted with your song."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT60t9aO5KN
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJvN4aJrsB
"I'm not working on our song," said Yong-guk as he went to work on the laptop.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1xqkpobeZ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrSapdC2Vk
"Then, what are you working on?" I raised my eyebrow at him.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn715HKe3gh
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdPZ13vyul
"On your song," he answered.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecUnksBsw9
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqrVGewJpd
"Huh?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8hrU6oJcw
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPNcDjUhXk
"The tune you played earlier gave me a little inspiration to somehow come up with an instrumental. It's still not finished since I just started."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTGmanDItD
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPi0mOXVgBY
"Wow." I'm surprised. I didn't think Yong-guk would go this far. I didn't even know what to say.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9YsBGM9pO
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAARqqklvgV
"Hey, are you okay, Sam?" Yong-guk asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UqsxToOUh
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRUeqQ5M9e
I quickly turned to look at him. "Huh?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QDnkspI7K
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRFf4cNiV0
"You spaced out for a bit. Is it a bad idea that I'm working on the instrumental? I know there will probably be someone working on it, but I thought I could do something, you know?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfLCBWMyR2
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZ9P19AuNg
I smiled at him. He really means it. There aren't many people in the world who are so thoughtful.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hmtlKZkVN
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjey1HPBtx9
"I know what you mean. And no. I think there's no better person to work on it than you, Yong-guk."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4FSxQyESJ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6L4zsg6Wic
"Really?" He looked a little surprised with what I said.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOuSCfXPhj
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jsDjJsTKg
"Of course! Who would've thought we would've you helping us? It's actually really nice of you."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM80rFhRnT
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK4du5DEpd
I noticed his cheeks start to redden a little and he quickly turned away. I continued to smile. I had this overwhelming feeling like I could hug him, but now isn't the time.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9x6WDCArfh
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjbVAH6bvX
"May I hear what you've done so far?" I asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Yioed5a40
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NBNNTN9tz
"Ah..., sure," he said as he brought over the laptop closer.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrephohacju
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqy0Qvd3Rez
He showed me what he had done and even when the instrumental was short, it sounded great. He really did follow the tune and melody like I had done with the guitar. He also added a few beats into the mix making the song sound more like pop.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4C82WNtd1
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtRLF8EvmG
"Amazing," I looked at him with so much awe. "It's no wonder you're such a great producer."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpw4sv2aiN
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyW92KDarq0
He chuckled. "Coming from you, that means a lot."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayFw9D8w36
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwbjFcNYXD
"The others should hear this." My ear twitched. "I know you're there, Mike."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLarWWP82F0
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33Zpy712rs
"Dang it!" I heard him mutter. Yong-guk and I turned around to see him behind us. "How come my cat feet can't work on you?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvF9bwmdZ9b
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGMvMWySyR
"Because what you've ain't cat feet," I smirked at him. "You've to work a lot harder than that."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbMU7J5PFE
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnf5wSk14z
"Anyway....," he came closer and placed his hands on my shoulder and Yong-guk's, "what is it that some of us have to listen to?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cFQIjWRQJ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiNM3DqHQd
"This," I said as I pressed the play button on the laptop, playing out the instrumental for him.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl26OMA9Vrk
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDRyoZX6TV
"Wow," muttered Mike. "But wait..., why does this beat sound familiar?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISSX8zpQkt
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbekXzYKvN
"It's because it's the beat to our song, silly," I said to him.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ayKD5HhXP
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSTSZzkbTZ
"Wow! Really!" I saw Mike look at Yong-guk just like I did earlier, with so much awe. "This is what you were working on?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIfLVd2Kcv
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDnRSHUQ5I
Yong-guk nodded his head. Mike almost screamed like a girl, but he tried not to be so loud. I couldn't help but chuckle. He looked like his five year old self when he got a remote control car for his birthday.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9daliEKRPJ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgT6zmLIrnt
"You're amazing," he said as he patted Yong-guk on the shoulder. "This song will be awesome."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQItAsqStaP
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQKhSGeo6Z
"Thanks," he said. "You should be thanking your sister, though."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDSmBJS9sL
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuo84XFXXIs
"Huh?" Mike and I looked pluzzled.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRiinJzWZb
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdyweNBtAL
"Remember what I said," he said as he looked at me. "The way you played with the guitar inspired me to come up with this."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukgtrXFoNc
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsB3QbN7sq
"Oh...," I forgot he said that. Now it's my turn to blush, and Yong-guk smiled.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiHUS0eayQ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4fwwFspMq
"Ya, my sister is a genius," said Mike. "May I join you?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v47v94ydQ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrRSdg3Y2p
"Sure," said Yong-guk. "With you two here, I bet we can work on it together."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAw89bIHpq
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0GeDzZomc
"And probably come up with lyrics for the song," I said when it dawned on me. "That's why you wanted me to come and join you here by the console."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9k5XHw16yI
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJoRO6gbAe
"I see you've got what I intended to do." Yong-guk turned to look at me with a smile. Mike sat on his other side. "I thought working on the instrumental will give you some idea on lyrics for the song."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsBNECqGzX
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkrARqmHRe
"We'll see," said Mike as he rubbed his hands together and looking at the console before him like a hot, tasty meal he couldn't wait to put in his mouth.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVFu4ZUMG0
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPfHmeWvwB
"Alright, let's start," said Yong-guk.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSO6ULuPiPI
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkgNXg02xG
The three of us worked on the beats maker software on the laptop. With Mike's creativity and Yong-guk's producer skills, working on the instrumental was smooth and simple. We had no idea how long we had been working on it, but we had fun and joked around whenever we could.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmrcWCESds
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsQVbiTWZp
"Hey, what's going on here?" Himchan asked as he came to join us.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHe9zdmIaT
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDrJPoCdP5
"We're working on an instrumental," Mike answered.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuaV5QxprK
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzZpZvtvyg
"Which one?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkej0m3fAPA
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNApwdaUtES
"For our song," I answered. "You should hear it, it's really good."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOQUZxYJRV
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgIJxQ4CYH
"Oh, I thought you had run out of ideas for the lyrics."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnNfj4YFsP
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RZo3LR4Yx
"Well, I did. Maybe if I continue working on the instrumental, I might come up with them."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhm3kkXcueS
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTPt9swbfV
"How far have you gone doing so?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvs3QT7lbP
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh15arwHqhs
"Not too far," Yong-guk answered. "We've only tried to work on the first part and heading to the chorus. But even that needs a lot of work."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXe0Cu3tkvL
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfyXaeciDD
"I agree," said Mike.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjsjw3zI4x
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYSCXifGi7
"And you're going to use this instrumental for your album?" Himchan asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zrBmOCO7Q
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBQnTZUwRj
"Of course we're," I answered, looking back at him. I now understood why he asked and I winced.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4QeyNYVPV
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznzqP8b24y
"What is it, Sam?" Mike asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGKh3l1J43
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3upPS2aWnY
"We need to seek permission to use this instrumental." I scratched the back of my head. "Goodness, why didn't I think about this before?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxpGCDtqBx
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphs5Tgq8FW
"Oh, ya," Mike turned to look at me quickly. "Why can't you give Collins a call and tell him that we've someone helping us?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVM5RsuZbTA
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83pkFQ77NK
"Collins may agree. But what about Yang Hyun-suk?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfF9RWB1voT
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5i4s9IW3uu
Mike and I stared at each other. We both winced like we had done something wrong and we would be in big trouble for it.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jFZ14b965
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWYSThajIy
"Gosh, the man is troubling," said Mike as he leaned back in his seat. "He can hunt you in your dreams if you think about him too much."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIuWmynGYi
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLrrnNBr6f
"He's really strict," I said. "And he's also hard to impress. If we do play out the instrumental for him, would he really like it?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBcJjyFtvp
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fEYIgAG5W
"This is your tune and melody, Sam. So, he can't refuse. I mean, the song we did with BigBang was all you too."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlTZVyhr7x
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYQtOac4X9
"It was?" Yong-guk and Himchan asked at the same time.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtZtghhEJH
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdJiR2dFLK
"Never mind that," I told them as I went back to looking at Mike. "I'm worried because Yong-guk is helping us produce this one. Will Yang Hyun-suk agree?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJMCMRjHbX
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMAqEV8EDo
"As long as he knows you thought of it in the first place, he'll definitely agree." Mike leaned forward so as to look at me.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7rhMFsTcB
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18PZuBk4NT
"Does this thing involving me always have to be highlighted?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0heG7Ni1rY
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRo1RtskpY
"Daa, yes! Out of all of us, Yang Hyun-suk approves of you the most. He'll definitely go through with it."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTT22zUNw4
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDRhHZF3Ox
I gave Mike a look. I don't consider myself as Yang Hyun-suk's favourite among The Toxins. I'm just afraid he won't approve.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoypXLUZcI
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKR3L18VugQ
"Okay, if that's the case, than what of Yong-guk? Will he really help us through till the end?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1kBQ0FZOH
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7P7xuB3HD
"I don't think we've to worry about that. Besides, even if he didn't offer to help, he seemed to do it out of his own free will, you know."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhFSPg5wng
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuaJNNbbNU
"I'm right here, you guys," said Yong-guk in between Mike and me. "I can clearly hear you."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxMMbaCviZ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcVpMLZbtI
Mike and I turned to look at him, then ignored him like he wasn't there. Himchan chuckled.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzolXTJX7z
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJD0sNGgkbH
"You're right," I said. "He'll stay till the end. He's such a good friend for helping us out."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEva11qZuQ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6C3Uq5TRZ5
"I know right," Mike smiled. "He's awesome."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpox7Fr50fr
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3v1ooFN9c
"I think you better focus on giving Collins a call, Sam," said Yong-guk, trying to sound serious, yet falling to do so.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuywDHOXEh
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLRkCy4rLt
"Aww," Himchan complained. "Their conversation was just about to get more interesting."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FORMB1BUy
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VEO7WQb9e
I laughed. "He's just trying to hide the fact that he's blushing."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFTGvu2klK
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPy2D5yLCkx
"No, I'm not," said Yong-guk as he folded his arms and looked straight ahead, avoiding eye contact.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq23lL5xsXG
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyCLrWpcxK
Mike burst out laughing that he leaned back further in his seat. "Stop trying to put up a serious face, Yong-guk," he said. "You look awfully funny."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPGEvRUsJz
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANpf8mnH7P
I couldn't help but agree with Mike as I also started laughing. I had to keep in mind that I had a phone call to make. I soon stood up from my seat.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZS5t6CIX75
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTZphU1qXp
"I'll be back," I said as I tried to stop laughing. "You better not have that face when I get back, Yong-guk."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeDjrdyEdY
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QO8GyuaKu
I walked away from the others as I made my way to the door. I needed to be somewhere more private if I am to talk with Collins.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OJxVGvhRA
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDADSd9FTY
I stepped out into the hall and looked both ways. There's nobody walking around. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and searched for Collins' number. I pressed the call button and placed the phone to my ear.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1Y7WscwZQ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPD2AZyQ8p0
His phone rang, and it kept on ringing. I grew worried that he might not answer. Maybe he's busy. He did say he would be occupied today. I better call him at a later time.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC19DJcVS8x
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DPR58tD1c
Just when I'm about to cut the call, he picked up at the last minute.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0WiqYGKEy
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLF0i3v1In
"Hi, Sam," came his voice. "How's song writing going?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCPQpGeOxI
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriQU8dDNiE
"Not good, I'm afraid," I said as I scratched the back of my head wondering how to bring up the instrumental thing.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5p4n6PNEi
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqhy3S81Z1
"You'll figure it out. You do have extra help, don't you?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPGGXZD7lB
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLE7bpunzr
"I see Lee told you about BAP."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hlZ64sSlq
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigoJqB4fvj
"Well, she had to. So what can I do for you?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLlfQONRRf
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4k0SbW0dB
"Well, we were working on the song and we felt a little stuck. So we had help with coming up with the instrumental for the song."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwquw48yng
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0ggU8gI5H
"You're already coming up with that?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUD2jYkujAE
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KFqM0zyjv
I scratched the back of my head even more as I started to pace up and down in front of the door. "Well, ya. You see, Yong-guk - the leader of BAP - kind of got inspired to make us the instrumental because of the way I played it with the guitar. So we were wondering if it's okay with you that we use it for the song."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXLzwnpsSx
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMRqpYKeRt
There was silence on the other end. I wonder what Collins must be thinking. He's a little unpredictable sometimes and he might not agree with it.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleWIIMbeBu
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtk4BwIB64p
"Well," he started to say, "we would've to listen to it to see if it's actually good. The big problem is whether he should be working on it in the first place."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVwqH5mVYl
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsVumzOLAN
I knew it. I had to say something quick to convince him.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynUUVwHj2Q
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpfIqAnefw
"I know, but he's really good. And besides, Mike and I are helping out too. You can be rest assured that it will be great."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGCFLUcDCl
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjsvIREHc5
"I believe you. But you know I'm not the only manager in this project of ours."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahrqg5Yzn5
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStWxcLdmvg
"If you could talk to Yang Hyun-suk for me, I bet he would agree. Yong-guk is a great producer and he's reputation proves that otherwise."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZOPCMSjFh
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6d7P7MwQ3
"I don't have to talk to Yang Hyun-suk. He's right here with me. I put you on loud speaker."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO6PhlBXNu
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZHncwOiQy
I swallowed as I stopped pacing and my heart did one huge beat that I felt my chest hurt.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7Z5km9dmg
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQof1YvZwop
"Oh..., good afternoon, Yang Hyun-suk sarangnim," I said quickly, so as not to seem surprised.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsm82gDOXID
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMttxF5PbF
"Afternoon," came Yang Hyun-suk's voice. I could feel beads of sweet starting to form on my forehead. "I heard everything you had to say."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpbJThI9Zo
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQWTkEi7cN
"And what do you think?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvUb4J8qZq
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPqFYmgE9A
"Well..., as much as the idea sounds tempting, I would actually refuse."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYOUfl1Tbu
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrFJ4QT5G1
My heart sank. I told myself it was worth a try anyway.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqdbkGTWfu
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaeqalpZWT
"But," he continued, "we're talking about Bang Yong-guk, and he's reputation, like you've said, precedes him. If he does want to help out and you think he's the right producer for the job, then I've no objection to it. You can proceed with making the instrumental."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBOq8kVur8
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQI0uRngJJ
"Really!" I cried out in excitement. I can't believe he actually agreed.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniWbso9Nli
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCvryUoDI6
"Let's not forget that we're the ones that have the final say. If it's good, then we will proceed."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhj7reUa8Zx
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGlv3sOMqW
"Thank you!" I said with so much excitement. I could hear the two managers chuckle to themselves. "I promise you won't be disappointed."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhGhGSI09J
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgb3ZITo47
"Make us proud, Sam," said Collins. "I hope you'll be able to come up with lyrics."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxrOLV8ooW
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5I9mC7ObS
"I will. Thank you once again."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6dMCDBGtz
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGt4ISIhdfZ
The two managers wished me luck. As soon as the line cut, I punched the air with excitement. We're really doing this. I can't wait to tell the others.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjF2NXPXuu
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx01OAHJuLo
I turned around and opened the door to the studio. As soon as I went in, I quickly rushed over to the others on the console.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWiLzM5W8d
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pMVDoIuJ2
"What's the news?" Mike asked as he looked at me.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LBOM3afh6
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPomlcGXc3P
"I hope it's good," said Himchan.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfvWBbTqA6
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd89XlZrsw
"What news?" asked Daniel who was still seated on the couch. His eyes left the phone as he looked at us who were by the console.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyESlxjVoY
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWPr1bV56p
"They agreed," I answered.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1pnE1sOwX
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcpeV9Dl95
Himchan and Mike clapped, looking relieved. Yong-guk leaned back in his seat, looking cool and composed, but I could tell that he was just as happy as the three of us.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqjfi3pYrI
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZ69MsGAxN
"Who agreed to what?" Daniel asked as he stood up from his couch to come over and join us. "I want to know what's going on."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAnyEskxvI
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaKO1w6B6d
"Ya, I'm also anxious to know what you're all talking about," said Daehyun.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUXdxegIGr
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwCbsIqhQF
"Me too," said Zoey. "What did I miss?"580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPZVePIUj8
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiWAtoESjY
"A lot," I answered.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbm8sdwggD
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBtaPDFCWW
I told them what was going on and how I somehow managed to talk to the managers to go through with Yong-guk's instrumental.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ESOEAfv7v
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yIQ3tHV3H
"Wow, that's awesome," said Zelo.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcIR7l3sHN
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6ZOGkjPt1
"You see how the managers just love you, Sam?" Mike asked.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0SNGSwxCG
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eiihN7HAD
"No, they don't," I emphasised. "If they don't like the instrumental, we aren't going to use it. So it has to be perfect."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAK1C8O86z
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUXXAbyz6s
"But for them to agree its because they know Yong-guk is an awesome producer," said Himchan. "No doubt it will be lit."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBu8ctImBD
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoOtDVK9P0
"I agree with Himchan," said Zoey. "And besides, it's more of Sam's original, so they can't say no."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCflAg8quT
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosNx2q78bV
"Okay, we just need to focus on the instrumental and hopefully come up with the lyrics," I said.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9F4mKfNxxw
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vbbBhg02j
"Well, you better work on those fast," said Yong-nam, who was now wide awake, but still laying on the floor. "You don't have much time."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwG2eAbYn4V
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF95c6Sn8hG
"Okay," I said as I rubbed my hands together. "Toxins, get over here by the console, please."580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbTHIoATWA
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UmzKbq7Vt
"Okay," said Christine and Zoey as they both stood up from the couch and quickly came over.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRc3Sx7fBYJ
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdz39zaDrV
"We will be here to help in anyway we can," said Young-jae.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7384Q1ULo5
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu09LkSQnn
"Thanks, guys," I said with a smile. I went over to sit back on my chair next to Yong-guk.580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljYbPg7wr5
580Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRyheLLVmT
"Okay," said Yong-guk. "Let's continue where we ended, shall we?"
